The police say the adopted parents are cooperating. How much or in what capacity or whether under the advisement of an attorney is not mentioned in articles. While LE hasn't yet officially confirmed the adoptive parents are POIs we all can connect the dots and are well aware of where their focus is.

So is Kennedy not this womans child? She said her three children that were in that home were Natalie, Ashton, and Rickie. Well I guess they could have renamed her?

We understand that many in the public might be confused how an arrest in this case has not been made, that is completely understandable. What we would like to convey is that we have one chance to gather as much information as possible, to find out what happened to this child and to tell her story. While we understand the desire to hold persons accountable, we need to get this correct and not fast. Releasing too much information might appear to implicate a person or persons who were not involved, so in our search for the truth we need to equally work to protect peoples’ rights. This investigation is ongoing.


Officers, Detectives, surrounding law enforcement agencies, social workers, mental health professionals and many others are hard at work to find answers. What we can assure everyone interested in this case, Kennedy is the center of our Universe and will remain so until we have answers.

Christa Helm told KSN that she is certain that the remains belong to one of her three children who were adopted five years ago.

Parlier confirmed to PEOPLE that Helm had three biological children in the home and that she had lost her parental rights “sometime earlier," but did not confirm the timeline.

While authorities have not identified the child, Helm started a [donation site] for legal expenses to retrieve her two other children from the home, and identified the daughter she believes to be deceased as Natalie.

BBM, looks like you're right that the adoptive family renamed her. Natalie is a beautiful name.
